Network gateway for a vehicleNetwork gateway for a vehicle description/claimsThe Patent Description & Claims data below is from USPTO Patent Application 20090265633, Network gateway for a vehicle. Brief Patent Description - Full Patent Description - Patent Application Claims
This application claims under 35 U.S.C. §119(a) the benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2008-37378 filed Apr. 22, 2008, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. The present invention relates to a network gateway for a vehicle, and more particularly, to a technology sharing the contents between all displays in the inside of a vehicle. Recently, the number of vehicles containing a telematics module have increased in order to improve the stability of a vehicle or the convenience of a driver while enhancing the quality of the vehicle. The telematics module can include a mobile communications connection module (for example, the Code Division Multiple Access CDMA module) for connecting to the mobile communications network, which enables the vehicle to connect to the wireless Internet (hereinafter, “Internet”) through a mobile communications network. By using the telematics module, a driver can connect to the Internet while inside the vehicle to transceive an e-mail or search various information. The telematics module can report the condition of the vehicle to the driver when vehicle failure is detected after diagnosing the vehicle at a remote site through a mobile communications network, and can inform the driver of follow-up measures for solving vehicle failure. The telematics module can provide the various information, including, but not only limited to, traffic information, living information, and also provide emergency rescue through the Internet. Additionally, a plurality of display units have been installed inside of a vehicle as the quality of the vehicle has improved. In the inside of the vehicle, the display unit can be fixed in a given position of a dash board or in a predetermined part of a front glass so that the passenger (including a driver) of the front seat might see the display unit, or alternatively it can be installed at the backside of the front seat, the center console, or the roof of the vehicle so that the passenger of the rear seat might see the display unit. Each display can be independently operated, and also can be dependently operated on a specific display unit. The display units that are controlled by the one particular display unit have to be connected to that particular display unit in order that a plurality of display units are dependently operated on a particular display unit. Accordingly, the physical connection between the display units can be difficult as the number of display units increases. Thus, contents sharing between the display units of only a certain number or less becomes possible, and the contents sharing of all display units of the inside of the vehicles of any desired number is not realized. The above information disclosed in this the Background section is only for enhancement of understanding of the background of the invention and therefore it may contain information that does not form the prior art that is already known in this country to a person of ordinary skill in the art. In one aspect, the invention features a network gateway for a vehicle including an interface connecter which is connected respectively to at least one or more display units that receive a user command and display a process result for the user command; and a controller which shares contents by transmitting the contents from a specific display unit to another display unit in case it is commanded through the interface connecter to share the contents from the specific display unit. In accordance with one embodiment of the invention, the network gateway for a vehicle further includes a wireless LAN connecter which is preferably connected to a mobile device equipped with a wireless LAN, wherein the controller shares the contents by suitably transmitting a encoded and compressed data corresponding to the contents which is transmitted from the mobile device to a display unit which is designated by the mobile device in case it is commanded through the wireless LAN connecter to share the contents from the mobile device. The controller preferably shares the contents by encoding and compressing data corresponding to the contents which is transmitted from a display unit which suitably requests the content sharing and transmitting to the mobile device in case it is commanded to perform the contents sharing with the mobile device from a specific display through the interface connecter. Preferably, a printed circuit board in which the interface connecter and the controller are designed is installed in the inside of the user interface. Preferably, a printed circuit board in which the interface connecter, the controller, and the wireless LAN connecter are designed is installed in the inside of the user interface. It is understood that the term “vehicle” or “vehicular” or other similar term as used herein is inclusive of motor vehicles in general such as passenger automobiles including sports utility vehicles (SUV), buses, trucks, various commercial vehicles, watercraft including a variety of boats and ships, aircraft, and the like. The above features and advantages of the present invention will be apparent from or are set forth in more detail in the accompanying drawings, which are incorporated in and form a part of this specification, and the following Detailed Description, which together serve to explain by way of example the principles of the present invention. The above and other features of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to certain exemplary embodiments thereof illustrated by the accompanying drawings which are given hereinafter by way of illustration only, and thus are not limitative of the present invention, and wherein: Continue reading about Network gateway for a vehicle...
